[Verse 1]

Getting dressed and bunker bound

Shuffling through the heather

Neighbors drop their flowers down

And worry about the weather

Every night, I'm floating over you, my love

Every night, I dream I'm under you


[Verse 2]

All of the smiling men with sweaty hands

Delivering widows' pensions

Won't you please accept our sympathy

Into all three dimensions?

Every night, I'm floating over you, my love

Every night, I'm drifting under you

Don't want to think about my last cigarette

Don't want to focus on the curve of your thigh

Don't want to slip off your white silhouette

I don't think this is a very sensible way to die


[Bridge]

Lonely, lonely, lonely

Lonely, lonely, lonely

Lonely, lonely, lonely

Lonely, lonely, lonely


[Verse 3]

Every night, I'm floating over you, my love

Every night, I dream I'm under you

Well, I'm altar-bound and underdressed

Just slightly out of order

Hanging on the fringe of daylight's

Soft and pitch border


[Verse 4]

Every night, I'm floating over you, my love

Every night, I'm slipping under you

Every night, I'm floating over you, my love

Every night, I'm dream I'm under you

Lonely, lonely, oh I'm so lonely
